Rolled Barley Flakes from Canada
Rolled barley flakes are hulled barley grains steamed and flattened into flakes for quick-cooking porridge or granola. HTS 1104.29.10.00 covers this as 'rolled' worked barley not qualifying as germ (1104 other sub) or milled products under chapter starch/ash rules. The rolling process 'works' the grain without fine grinding.
